Summary
In this episode I'm joined by Clive Palmer to discuss the injury to Jurrien Timber, the implications on the squad as it stands, whether it means a chance for Kieran Tierney, and it it's something Arsenal will address in the transfer market. We also chat about the arrival of David Raya and whether it's a precursor to how the goalkeeping position might be seen going forward, Martin Odegaard and rumours of a new contract, the demands on players, the threat of the Saudi Arabian league to Premier League clubs who are used to being the richest but now find themselves playing second fiddle in that regard, and lots more.
